Fighting Judicial Corruption Building Toward a Better Democracy https://linktr.ee/courtaccountability
Chatted with the indispensable @janainelson.bsky.social, Prez of the @legaldefensefund.bsky.social, about how, post-Callais and mid-Trump, we have to *both* fight in the courts and work to reform them. Amen. @meidastouch.com @legalafmtn.bsky.social @courtacctability.bsky.social bit.ly/4pSa7Yo
Originalism isn’t Originalist! Loved talking with @jgienapp.bsky.social about the real history of how the founding generation understood who decides what our constitution means. Spoiler: not SCOTUS! @courtacctability.bsky.social @meidastouch.com @legalafmtn.bsky.social youtu.be/HikaHUknPMI
The Roberts Court is making Americans poor. On purpose. We should talk about that more.

Blanche slips! 😬 KENNEDY: Are you and President Trump friends? BLANCHE: I'm his lawyer. Was his lawyer.
Amy Coney Barrett just told Congress that it would be inappropriate to explain the reasoning behind the Court’s unreasoned shadow docket orders. As if unreasoned judicial orders are a thing. They are not. The reasoning is the whole point.
Elie Mystal: The idea that the Supreme Court gets to tell us which laws are constitutional or not is not in the Constitution. The word "unconstitutional" does not appear in the Constitution. @courtacctability.bsky.social

Today’s decision(s) and this dark term of MAGA #SCOTUS once again underscores why every single Democrat running for President in 2028 and/or any federal office this year need to make rebalancing and reforming this Roberts SCOTUS a centerpiece of their agenda. Otherwise, nothing matters.
Mark Joseph SternDonald Trump came one vote away from getting the Supreme Court to say that the 14th Amendment does not guarantee birthright citizenship for the children of undocumented and temporary immigrants, a view held only by fringe far-right nativists until VERY recently. This is shocking. I am stunned.
Between this and Justice Alito’s no-show on the bench today, I am not having a good feeling about what is in the works.
Doug LindnerMSNBC: Clarence Thomas why are you in the Capitol Building? Clarence Thomas: lol @ the mere concept of answering for the way i wield massive government power for 35 years and counting
The Supreme Court changes only when people make it. @courtacctability.bsky.social's Alex Aronson said it best at our event: the Court is the Wizard of Oz. They’re not deities, they are accountable to the people.

If You Thought Callais Was Bad, Wait Until You Hear About the Roberts Court’s Alabama RulingIt’s Nothing Short of a Coup by Neo-Confederates in Robescourtaccountability.substack.com
Even when the fact-finding court made the exact finding that the Supreme Court said would toss a district map, the Supreme Court reversed, applying its highest principle: “whatever helps Republicans win is what we do.” They are now shameless.
Supreme Court allows Alabama to use voting map favoring GOPThe high court rejected a lower court’s ruling that Alabama discriminated on the basis of race when it drew its preferred map.www.washingtonpost.comThe Court Doesn’t Own the Constitution By @courtacctability.bsky.social substack.com/@legalaf/not...
